Here are some things to keep in mind when you’re interacting with someone on the autism spectrum or other sensory sensitivities.

Has your daily life ever been altered by an illness, injury or disability? If so, you’ve probably worked with a rehabilitation therapist. One type of rehabilitation therapy is speech therapy, which is the diagnosis and treatment of communication, speech and swallowing disorders.

Aphasia is a communication disorder where you have problems speaking or understanding. It is not an exclusive diagnosis and is usually the result of damage to a part of the brain that controls language. This damage may be from a traumatic brain injury, stroke, infection or tumor. There are different types of aphasia, and diagnosis depends on what part of the brain is affected. Fortunately, aphasia is a treatable condition.
